There’s no definitive storage purpose for a deck box, we know friends who have them situated in their entrance hall storing outdoor gear, boots and shoes etc, others occupy work tools or they serve as a fab facility for harboring kids toys enabling the quickest of tidy-ups.

We decided to place our deck box on the patio for convenience, storing outdoor seating cushions. Where to store once represented problems, in the garage they became covered in dust whereas finding room indoors created more hassles due to their bulkiness.

Upon assembling the deck box, problems were soon alleviated due to their spacious internal storage capacity. The Brushwood is specifically designed to maintain a dry ventilated internal environment, ideal for protecting delicate fabrics like seating cushions.

We fill our deck box in mid spring, it accommodates seating cushions and patio accessories up towards the end of Autumn. When the cold weather approaches we empty the box over the winter period and store the contents in the loft however their advantages epitomise the convenience of outdoor summer living, certainly been a benefit on our behalf.

Keter advise to wipe the lid dry after rainfall to prevent puddles of water seeping into the box when opening.

Another decision relating to our deck box choice was to select a flat lid design, these offer additional table top services, hugely beneficial when just Tracy and myself are sat out on the patio for drinks and the likes whilst around BBQ times the flat lid serves the advantages for extra table space, displaying food, plates, cutlery and other alfresco accessories.

Brushwood’s composite mix is UV stabilised delivering protection against deterioration when sunburn rays attack, resisting bleaching and cracking when subject to hot sunshine, the inherent problem yesterday’s plastic once succumbed to, now overcome due to recent developments in manufacturing techniques.

Additional Brushwood Deck Box Features

Many of the well established deck box manufacturers lack an automatic opening mechanism however Keter now include gas shock pistons across their entire range of garden storage boxes, worth considering when comparing the various styles.

Pistons deliver easy access, when you start to open the lid the gas shocks take over, lifting the hefty lid ajar. Once the lid is fully opened the stay open design supported through the gas pressure prevents the lid closing.

Brushwood’s Child Friendly Pistons

Gas shock pistons provide the benefit of preventing the full lid weight slamming shut, this makes the Brushwood and ideal toy storage box. A deck box lid this size is fairly heavy, the preventative measure regarding a slammed closure avoids accidents when fingers get trapped.

Keter’s DUOTECH™ Range allows customising the unit in the colour of your choice if you wish to add a statement to enhance your surroundings by matching colours to accentuate with the landscape.

If you do decide to paint the Brushwood, only paint the horizontal composite panels, refrain from painting the resin leg supports and trim. Exterior water based acrylic paints are advised in either a solid, semi gloss, satin or a light shade finish.

Bear in mind, over time paint will start to fade due to being exposed to the outside elements however a re-coat can be applied without any decaying problems to deal with as this composite mix resists weather attack.

I really like this box. It sounds perfect for inside and out. And it’s very nice looking. I love that it’s so sturdy and durable and that the weather won’t hurt it. Outside storage boxes have come a long way and this one seems to be better than most of the ones I’ve seen out there.

Thanks for this review. I learned a lot and when I’m settled in our new place, I may have to look this up for outside toys. I think it would be a great addition to our yard.

Thanks for dropping by to read about Brushwood’s large garden storage boxes.

New techniques in resin manufacturing processes and the up-to-date ways in which polypropylene is molded certainly creates stylish attraction whilst pretty much eliminating any notion of plastic look. I agree with you regarding the older style, too cheesy plasticy looking for my liking too.

Just like the video in the article shows, the brushwood deck box can be used for a whole variety of outdoor storage services dependant on one’s wishes from kids storage to gardening equipment and everything else in between.

Where Keter have pulled a master stroke in my view regards including their gas shock pistons across all of their deck box ranges. These are child & finger friendly as they stop the lid slamming shut plus the gas pressure acts as an automatic opening system, taking over lifting once the lid becomes ajar.

We use a storage box like these to store our pool equipment in, however I have not seen one like these with a lock… definitely need to consider that next time. It’s important to get one that can outlast the weather and keep the contents safe. Great reviews, great selection.. thank you for sharing!

Thanks for leaving your message and reading about this new to the market Brushwood deck box.

I’m from the sunny UK so as you can probably imagine poolside storage is a seldom occurrence over here yet over in the USA it’s a huge market for the warmer climates and a great storage solution sitting poolside with the benefit of a flat lid providing table services and a sturdy body for seating accommodation.

Over in the UK, like America the deck box market dominates patio storage, BBQ areas, conservatories and balconies plus indoors too they are very common to clear the space and become more organised.

Most of the new designs accommodate a clasp designed for fitting a padlock to secure the unit which is beneficial for security purposes.

This Brushwood is designed to maintain a dry interior through the downfalls repelling rainwater whilst mixed into the resin are UV protection elements to prevent colour fade and withstand cracking when exposed the sun plus resin is resistant to rust, rot and decay providing weather defence.

Hi Simon
The way you described this Brushwood Garden Storage Box in your post made me to consider buying this product. It sounds like it is a solution to my backyard problems. I love the look, wooden-table-bench design. Huge capacity 455 Litres makes it even more attractive!
Very useful information.

Yeah, Keter have certainly upped the deck box game by replacing the plastic look with pure style with their innovative brushwood composite design.

This type of storage facility are so versatile, used for a whole plethora of various types of storage allowing you to organise more efficiently indoors and store the outdoor stuff outside.

We decided on a flat top lid purely for table top services. Ours has been so useful for storing outdoor seating cushions whilst doubling up for seating ability and great for placing drinks on top and mealtime use like BBQs etc.

The internal capacity of the brushwood is best described as extra large in a deck box size. We know many people who locate a few outdoors instead of going through assembly hassles constructing a walk-in shed.
